Dear Supporter,
With your help, 2014 will go down in history as the year
socialism was revived in America. Over 80,000 have viewed our socialist response to the State of the Union
Address. The 93,000 voters who elected me to Seattle City Council sparked a
nationwide debate on socialist ideas and building a left alternative to the two
corporate parties.
The backbone of my campaign was my organization,
Socialist Alternative, which provided leadership, strategy, and some of the most
dedicated activists.
As a next step, Socialist Alternative and I are
launching a mass campaign in Seattle, called 15 Now, for a $15/hour minimum wage. A victory in
Seattle will inspire workers across the country to rise up against poverty wages
and will attract thousands to join the struggle for socialist
change.
None of this will be possible without the resources to
fully seize the moment. Your financial support is crucial to Socialist
Alternative. We need to urgently raise
$75,000 in one-time donations and pledges for monthly contributions. These resources are needed to
hire new organizers, build new branches across the country, develop our website,
print campaign materials, and more.
My election victory proves that when we organize, when
everyone pitches in, we can take on corporate power and win. But it requires
sacrifice and sustained effort. Do your part by digging deep and giving what you
can today!
In Solidarity,
Kshama
Sawant
Seattle City Councilmember
